Private Cruise

Set sail on a fully personalized 12-hour yacht tour around Kefalonia with EgoCruise. Swim, snorkel, and discover hidden Ionian beaches on a private catamaran designed just for your group.

Kefalonia, the largest of the Ionian Islands in Greece, is famed for its rugged coastline, crystalline waters, and secluded coves. EgoCruise offers a tailored 12-hour private yacht experience that lets you navigate this island’s coastal wonders beyond the usual tourist routes. Departing from Agia Pelagia Marina, your day at sea is entirely customizable—perfect for celebrations or simply a serene escape.

The yacht, a spacious sailing catamaran, invites you to unwind on deck or dive into the Aegean’s inviting water. With professional English, Russian, and Greek-speaking crew, your itinerary can include swimming at the striking White Rocks Beach, snorkeling in vibrant marine spots, or cruising around Dias Island’s dramatic cliffs. The coastline’s limestone cliffs, hidden grottos, and beaches accessible only by boat create an intimate atmosphere for discovery.

Onboard, enjoy local wines, snacks, and a fresh lunch while soaking in panoramic views. For the adventurous, stand-up paddleboards and snorkeling gear open up more ways to engage with the sea’s calm and clear depths. Watching the day fade into a breathtaking Ionian sunset, far from crowds, is an unmatched reward.
